The outdoor seating overlooking the Yarra River made for a wonderful lunch. Our meals were beautifully presented, and the staff were welcoming throughout our visit. I’d happily recommend it to anyone spending time in Southbank.
Everything about the experience was enjoyable. The menu offered plenty of choice, the drinks were excellent, and the relaxed atmosphere made it easy to spend a few hours here. I’ll definitely be coming back.
I’ve walked past this place many times and finally decided to give it a try. The riverside location is excellent, the food was full of flavour, and the service was attentive from start to finish. A great place to meet friends after work.
